Hi Chuck,

I'll help. For some reason I just can't resist a question if I think I might be able to give an answer. Sometimes I know I act like I must think I am some kind of librarian or schoolmarm or whatever.

And I promise that I will not give you a test. Well, at least I will try really, really hard not to give you a test. I promise.
